The ability to move in an automatic or a goal-directed manner is a crucial function for many living organisms to survive and interact efficiently with their environments. Movements generation depend on the coordinated activity of motor centres that are distributed in the cortex, the basal ganglia, the cerebellum, and the brainstem but that, altogether, shape the descending motor commands sent to the spinal cord which will then execute the appropriate movements by controlling the activity of motoneurons. Any alteration in these systems and\/or their interaction will impair the flow of information leading to disastrous motor disorders. In this CAJAL course, we will not only discuss the common organization of motor centres across species<\/b> (from lamprey to primate) but also the neuronal mechanism and dynamics<\/b> that underlie spontaneous and voluntary movements as well as how pathological alteration of these activities can lead to detrimental motor performances and disease state.<\/p>\n

The goal of this CAJAL course is to instruct promising young neuroscientists to the advanced scientific concepts established in the field of motor control.<\/b> We will present the latest discoveries that has been made in different species that shed light on how voluntary and goal-directed movements are generated<\/b>. We will also describe the computational advances <\/b>and analysis method that has pushed the limit of understanding movement generation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
